Well, Hello fellow Anime friends. How goes the?

Anyway, I need help with putting the best anime movies in South Africa at the top Cool and the weakest at the bottom Crying or Very sad !!

I want to know what all of you guys and gals think because you're much more advanced in Anime then South Africa and have most probably watched most of them. I also want to do this because many of my friends are debating which one is better, as the review says one thing and people actually mean (90% of the time) the truth about it if it is Crap or Not! I know the reviw is made by people who know there stuff, no offence but I think that way is more theoritical and asking people what they think about it is more practical, since everyone is unique and espesially different about what they watch. Wink

It might sound a bit Vage what I am saying but we can't decide the outcome bescause we are fighting over it, you see! Embarassed

Your Opinion
>All I want is the rank meaning 1 being the best and 4 being the worst! so its TOP 4 !

>I would also like to know why, as it would help us a great deal. When I mean why, I mean the general theme of Anime Arrow Is the storyline good, graphics and well what makes this the best or the worst for you and so different to others you've seen before

The Anime movies\OAV's are:

>Akira
>Blood - The last Vampire
>Spriggan
>R.O.D (Read Or Die)

You can probably get a good idea how people feel, simply by looking at the user ratings in the encylopedia.

I have only seen Akira, Blood, and ROD. And of those two I don't remember Akira all to well since I was writing a midterm paper so I won't give an opinion on that.

Blood: The Last Vampire
This story takes place in Japan ( I believe) on a US miltary base during Vietnam Conflict era. I thought this was a very good movie to watch in terms of style and animations.
Althought this movie is very heavy on actions, when it does take place on screen it is very interesting.
The story itself for me was pretty good, I wouldn't say it the greatest piece ever, nor is it the worse. I felt the movie was short and I wanted more background on the main character.
The reason I would still give this story an excellent rating would be the overall message the Movie ends with. So for that fact alone I would recomend this movie.

R.O.D. AKA Read or Die
I just finished watching this two days ago so it's really fresh in my mind. Anyways this is very much an action flix lots of action for the casual movie watcher. Great story involving the main character and the other minor characters around her. Also I found this OVA to be very funny, The paper is willing to risk her life just for her book, anyways great character development.
The look of this OVA is very pleasing, character look very well drawn out beside some obvious enlargement to certain body parts.
Overall I would recomment this OVA.

I would pick Blood over Read or Die, just because of overall meaning of the story.[/b]

Eh, Kazuki-san's got the right idea. The likelyhood that you're going to find enough people here who have seen all 4 movies isn't that great so the chances that you're going to get a good idea of what's the most popular is fairly slim in that respect.

[edit - Yup, Kazuki's suggestion would be the best. Locked. -b]
